Riker's Joke

.


It's a bag of laughs when the Cap is on the Bridge doing routine work. It means we can all go down to Ten Forward and have a laugh.

La Forge is telling us of the fun he intends to have on Rigel IV when we all go on vacation soon.

I am well into a Solarian Gin, tell a few good jokes and have a laugh with Deanna and the others.

"Why did Darth Vader cross the road?" I ask them.

After they give up, I tell them, "To get to the Dark Side."

They all fall about laughing. Well, anyone would, after those concoctions.

Data is looking a little puzzled.

"Excuse me, Commander, but what is amusing about trying to get to the dark side of the road?"

Data is a real party pooper. Remind me to switch him off next time we come to Ten Forward.

Deanna patiently explains it to him, after which he gives an artificial laugh that is worse than hearing fingers scraping a blackboard.

I'm just about to tell the joke about the Romulan, the Klingon, the Cardassian and Captain Picard when both Worf and the Cap enter Ten Forward.

Perhaps it's best not to tell it, as I don't want to be courtmartialled by the Cap or torn apart by Worf.

So, how are you and Deanna doing?

I was wondering that very thing myself, Trinity. Is there really that much sexual tension or is that just for us?

Hahaha! Cute post! :)

Oh, but can't you share the joke here in the forums? You're such a little devil. Deanna's a lucky woman. ;)

Trinity & MommaK, Deanna & I are sort of very, very good friends, if you know what I mean.

Nic, I couldn't possibly tell it; the joke isn't for delicate ears. Besides, the Cap might overhear it.

Xtessa, that joke always makes 'em laugh. It's the way I tell 'em!

Jean-Luc Picard said...

Might overhear what, Number One?

Kimberly said...

How many Binars does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Two.

Jean-Luc Picard said...

Great jokes, Jon & han. I'll use them in my next comedy routine in Ten Forward.

Jean-Luc Picard said...

MommaK, I may install an e mail communicator for that purpose.

Captain Picard, do you let anybody write your blog?

Can't wait for Barkley to write
